Day 1: Okaukuejo Resort, Etosha South

Day Itinerary

Collect your vehicle and meet with your consultant who will go through your itinerary and answer any last-minute questions you may have before leaving the city of Windhoek behind. The drive takes you north to Otjiwarongo and onto Outjo, where you can buy water and fresh supplies, before arriving at Anderson’s Gate, the gateway to Etosha National Park. Enjoy your first game drive to the rest camp perhaps stopping at Ombika waterhole en route. Later, relax by the floodlit waterhole and see what game comes to drink. During the dry season, Okaukuejo waterhole is generally very active with hordes of animals wandering out of the bush to congregate to drink, as dust rises from hooves, and animals call across to each other, large herds of plains game such as springbok, zebra, wildebeest along with giraffe and kudu come to the fore. Around sunset it’s common for herds of elephant, as well as the endangered black rhino to enter the fray. Lion and other predators are of course, frequent visitors as well.

Day Itinerary

End of services. Game drives whilst in the park plus 6-7hours from gate to Windhoek, you will also need to allow time to drop off vehicle

Consultant Notes

As with all car hire companies if you have an accident and they prove you were negligent– for example – speeding then the zero excess becomes void and you are liable. You will complete the contract and discuss any extras with the car rental company upon collection of the vehicle – please check the vehicle carefully as you are responsible for it thereafter. If you have any problems with the car whilst you are on the road please contact them directly. With all car rentals you will need to provide your passport, driving licence (written in English or an international licence), as well as supply credit card for refundable deposit. A GPS is often available by the car rental companies (at clients own expense), however, we do find that due to our road network system (and small population), it is not normally required, we realize this is a personal preference and are happy to pre-book for you. Please do not drive around/after sunset
